30 PTS + BRAINLESSNESS

Both texts (the speech and the advertisement) address voluntourism. However, each text has a different purpose, which is reflected by the details each writer chose to include. Consider the words and images used.

In a paragraph of 6-8 sentences, identify what each text emphasizes and explain how that emphasis supports the claim of each argument. Be sure to state each argument's claim and include evidence from both texts to support your analysis.​​

While the first text addresses the harms of voluntouring, or volunteering and tourism, the second text, or the image, supports it. This can be seen by the first author saying, "However, this 'volunteer plus travel' experience can actually harm local communities. While many teens might view traveling and volunteering abroad as a worthwhile adventure, there are more genuine and effective ways to make a difference" thus implying that there are other good ways to help poor communities, such as, "If the world's citizens are your passion, it could go to an international organization. If you care about education, your funds can be used to buy books for students in faraway lands. If you want villagers to have clean water, contribute funds to local efforts to dig wells. If you want to experience a different culture, travel to the country as a guest, and learn from the locals how you can best help them after you've returned home. But do not voluntour." The first author also starts listing the harms of voluntouring, where he claims, "Proponents of the 'volunteer plus travel' experience also argue that traveling to new places builds character and is a valuable way to learn about different cultures. With voluntourism, however, participants often pursue experiences that are all about them. For example, they sign up to build a school for a gold star on their resume, but they have no real building skills and take jobs away from local construction workers (Schulten). Or, they arrive to teach English but instead take selfies with the locals. One world traveler and ethical voluntourist believes voluntourism 'can perpetuate small minded views of the world by taking insulated, fake, and structured experiences and selling them as unabridged and eye opening' (Carlos). The voluntour experience is a mirage. The voluntourist's eyes are not opened to real life at the destination, and lasting change is not achieved." The author also uses the technique of expert testimony in his text, by quoting Carlos, Michaels, Schulten, and Dale Rolfe, for multiple reasons, such as health facts, testimonies from workers, and even supporters of ethical voluntourism.

The author's claim in the second text is clear: They are supporting voluntourism. This can be easily seen by the author writing, "GIVE TWO WEEKS OF YOUR LIFE, AND GET THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE!" or "If you've always wanted to make a difference, here's your chance. The world is waiting for you." The author also backs up his claim with statistics, and although they are not directly related to the matter at hand, they are still related to voluntourism. The author says, "57 million children have no school to attend. 783 million people do not have access to clean and safe water worldwide. An estimated 27 million children sit in lonely orphanages throughout the world." And in an effort to further galvanize the reader into action, the author promises that it will not only be a volunteering effort to make the world a better place for some, but also a touristic visit. "Experience different cultures. See new countries... The only qualification necessary is a desire to help! The opportunities are endless!"

Read the student paragraph about a theme presented in "Raymond's Run."

One theme in this story is self-confidence. Squeaky exhibits self confidence when she runs into the other girls on the street. When Rosie says to Squeaky, "I don’t think you’re going to win this time," Squeaky replies, "I always win 'cause I’m the best." The fact that Squeaky does not get nervous and she stands up to a group of girls shows that she has self confidence.

Pls help first two questions already answered. WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
In this journal activity, you will write a brief history of your life. Use your own words, in the clearest way you can. You will be graded primarily on the completeness and clarity of your writing in both the "reflect" and "writing" sections of this assignment.

When you think about your life, do you ever think about it in the form of "themes" or "periods"? Maybe not yet, but as you age and more and more significant things happen to you and your personal history becomes more complex, concepts like "theme" and "period" might be helpful.

Step 1: Create Your Timeline

Create a simple timeline of your life. Start with your birth on the far left and the present year on the far right. Record ten major events that have happened in your life, such as the day your little sister or brother was born, the year you got your driver's license, or the day you went to your first concert. These milestones should represent events, people, or places that are of major importance to you.

Birth
My first day of school
My brother’s birth
First day at private school
Getting braces
My first airplane ride
Getting braces off
My first concert
First day of homeschool
The day I became a Christian

Step 2: Identify Periods

You will now break up your timeline into three to four "periods." A period is a chunk of time with a start and end date that marks a significant change in your life — such as starting and leaving elementary school, or starting a relationship and breaking up. Examine your timeline. What are the periods of your life? Write your answers below.

Preschool to Elementary school
Middle school
Private school
Homeschool

Step 3: Describe Themes

Look again at your personal timeline and the periods you've identified to organize your personal history. Can you identify any themes that transcend or move across those time periods? Think about your life and write down two to three themes below. Provide a brief rationale for each theme.

Theme


Rationale



You will now be writing a historical narrative of your own personal history using the periods and themes you've created above. Your journal entry should include the following:
A creative or descriptive title. Think of something that makes you, your family, or your community unique.
At least three paragraphs of narrative writing describing the major themes and periods of your life. Each paragraph should be at least three sentences long.
